Subject: [PATCH 4.20 045/145] media: dvb-usb-v2: Fix incorrect use of transfer_flags URB_FREE_BUFFER

4.20-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Malcolm Priestley <tvboxspy@...il.com>

commit 255095fa7f62ff09b6f61393414535c59c6b4cb0 upstream.

commit 1a0c10ed7bb1 ("media: dvb-usb-v2: stop using coherent memory for
URBs") incorrectly adds URB_FREE_BUFFER after every urb transfer.

It cannot use this flag because it reconfigures the URBs accordingly
to suit connected devices. In doing a call to usb_free_urb is made and
invertedly frees the buffers.

The stream buffer should remain constant while driver is up.
